I don't know if the answer is using another scholly for a kicker. We're thin enough at other positions - just kind of a freak thing where the backup kicker (Jorgenson) is also hurt. Not sure why Heins, the other walk-on kicker, isn't an option. But it's pretty bizarre to have to resort to punters and I don't think you can keep 2 scholarship kickers happy, let alone justify another specialist scholarship.

I refuse to believe there aren't at least a couple kids on campus right now playing intramurals that could provide us another option. We are to the point where Frost should be scouting intramurals for a kicker....which is sad.

Completely agree. At WR he's just a really good athlete that still needs to rely on the QB (who has some vision issues) to get him the ball. In the backfield I dare say he makes opposing D's feel the strain.

 

I honestly thought we recruited him as a running back. Isnt that what he was in high school?

I was confused by the playcall near the end of the game where we needed 5 inches and didnt QB sneak it...only to lead to a missed FG and needing to lean on our defense. I was shocked, stunned and dismayed.

It’s truly amazing to me how we amassed such yardage while having four turnovers, mediocre OL play in the first half & Adrian still not back to full force (although he has his moments as we saw). 

 

 

Imagine if one or two or these were corrected. Dear lord. We could have hung 800-900 on them. 

I agree. I'm hoping this was a wakeup call for the offense to get their s#!t together. 

Does anyone know where it will be setup at? IIRC the last time we got stomped by USC, gameday was in the stadium.

Might not have a kicker all year. Just try to overcome it. The fumbling is a huge concern. Every hit I expected a fumble. 

If we dont have a kicker all year then the play calling must reflect knowing we have 4 downs everytime.

We can't help ourselves.

At least Frost acknowledged that call was one he wanted back in his postgame presser. But that should be a no brainer.

They didnt give up.

We still have significant issues on ball security.

Our O-line is awful.

Our kicking game is worse than awful.

Wandale is going to be a special player. 

Ohio State is going to be a tall task given the basic things we still do poorly.

I am happy we won, but am honest in the assessment of this team. It's more a testament to how bad Illinois is.

I'm surprised Martinez wasnt jumping to catch those.

I'm gonna go back to the goaline play where Robinson gets stopped in the backfield...why do anything other than a QB sneak when you need 5 inches?

Oh my gawd

That couldn't have gone any better on that defensive series. Time to learn on that dline and hit em with a PA over the top to the TE

Apparently you can kick the brown thing through the yellow things.   

 

Never seen that.  Weird trick play 

Hopefully Frost will do some studying on this. I think it could really help our offense.

Martinez's last two runs he appears to be faster....wtf

I haven't drank for 13 years. But I'll be damned if this team might make me start again.

I'm so pissed I dont even want to drink....that's a whole new level.

That was helmet to helmet

The refs have been questionable at best.

Who is that o-lineman who got pancaked?

Nice pursuit, Cam!

Thatd be Farniok.....sigh

Hes the worst lineman I've ever had the displeasure of watching and he makes me want to gouge my eyes out.

How can they rule Illinois ball when they blew the play dead. Makes no sense.

WTF.  It is just constant.  Staff, team, horrible in all pahases and some I didn't even know existed.  And guys getting beaten up by Illinois.  Stronger, faster my a$$.

It's really odd how it seems to transcend the staffs. It's got to be a curse.

What in the absolute f#&%!

That play was really good. We just need to be much more consistent

Damn these high throws.

I blame it on the high snaps

It would seem the high snaps have conditioned Martinez to jump even when they aren't high....

Pulling lineman and they whiff. Jesus this oline is god awful.
